series Fight the Power: Black Superheroes on Film
Directed by Perry Henzell | 1972
With Jimmy Cliff, Janet Bartley, Carl Bradshaw
Legendary roots musician Jimmy Cliff is an aspiring singer who travels from the country to the streets of Kingston in search of stardom—only to become a crusading, anti-establishment outlaw of mythic proportions. This "definitive postcolonial cult-movie musical” (The Village Voice) introduced reggae to the world and is a vivid time capsule of 1970s Jamaica.
